You fail to distinguish between “common descent” and “common ancestry.” IOW, Darwinian theory is a theory of gradual change; whereas, ID is a theory of “jumps.” The “jumps” can be so significant that “common descent” becomes a misnomer.

When there are saltational “jumps,” then we don’t know what goes ‘in-between.’ Personally, I don’t think this ‘gap’ will ever be closed. I don’t see how it can be.

In the absence of this ‘gap’ being closed, we cannot definitely affirm “common descent.”
